Then you’re good to go, EDT layer has no affect on anything else in the AOT, and changing the EDT shouldn’t be noticed if the new EDT has the same properties as the original.

Thanks Preston,


I am aware of the id's fields on tables get. I had this problemn and
have already solved it. (transferred the definition to the var layer
and handle the data). I only need to do it for the extended data
types now.

regards,
Danny
